preparation example 1

Preparation of a Composite Including CNT and Mesoporous SiO2 (KIT-6)

[0167]30 g of surfactant (Pluronic 123, Aldrich) was dissolved in 1,085 g of water, and 0.183 g of the activated MWNT of Comparative Preparation Example 1 was added thereto, followed by sonication for 12 hours.

[0168]30 g of 1-butanol (99.5 wt %, Samchun) was added to the mixture at room temperature, and 59 g of a hydrochloric acid solution (35 wt %) was further added thereto, and continuously stirred. Next, 66.5 g of TEOS (95 wt %, Aldrich) was added to the mixture, and then stirred again at a temperature of 35° C. for 24 hours.

[0169]A hydrothermal treatment of the mixture was performed at a temperature of 100° C. for 24 hours.

[0170]The reaction mixture was then filtered, washed with ethanol, and filtered again.

[0171]The resultant was heat treated at a temperature of 370° C. for 3 hours to obtain a composite including CNT and mesoporous SiO2 (KIT-6).

[0172]In the composite, the amount of the CNT was 1 parts by weight...

preparation example 2

Preparation of a Composite Including CNT and Mesoporous SiO2 (KIT-6)

[0173]A composite including CNT and mesoporous SiO2 (KIT-6) was prepared in the same manner as in Preparation Example 1, except that 0.563 g of MWNT was used instead of 0.183 g of MWNT.

[0174]In the composite, the amount of the CNT was 3 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the composite including CNT and mesoporous SiO2 (KIT-6).

preparation example 3

Preparation of a Composite Including CNT and Mesoporous SiO2 (KIT-6)

[0175]A composite including CNT and mesoporous SiO2 (KIT-6) was prepared in the same manner as in Preparation Example 1, except that 0.958 g of MWNT was used instead of 0.183 g of MWNT.

[0176]In the composite, the amount of the CNT was 5 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the composite including CNT-mesoporous SiO2 (KIT-6).

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims the benefit of and priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2013-0104506, filed on Aug. 30, 2013, in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, and all the benefits accruing therefrom under 35 U.S.C. §119, the content of which is incorporated herein in its entirety by reference.BACKGROUND[0002]1. Field[0003]The present disclosure relates to an electrode active material, an electrode including the electrode active material, and a lithium battery including the electrode.[0004]2. Description of the Related Art[0005]A representative example of a negative active material that is used in a lithium battery is a carbonaceous material such as graphite. Graphite provides a stable capacity and potential when cycled, and when intercalated with lithium, the graphite volume does not change. Accordingly, a battery that is manufactured using graphite has high stability. However, the capacity of graphite limits the applicability o...
